The Inner Hand at Work
Acts 11:21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Acts 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse describes the Lord's presence with the believers, resulting in a growing number who believe and turn toward the Lord.
Neville's Inner Vision
Acts 11:21 speaks of the hand of the Lord being with them, and a great number believing and turning unto the Lord. In Neville's terms, this is not a geographic event but a shift in consciousness. The hand of the Lord is the steady support of your own I AM, the awareness that bears and directs every interior movement. When a people or scene is said to be with you, it is your inner state, your certainty, that creates the outward turn. Belief here arises as a natural momentum when attention is fixed on the Lord within, not on lack or doubt. The great number is the multiplication of conviction inside the mind; turned unto the Lord is the turning of desire, of focus, toward your divine state. Providence is not a distant force but the continuous, intimate experience of your own awareness ripening into form. Therefore, you may assume the state of the Lord's hand now: feel supported, confident, and unshakable. As you dwell there, the external scene will reflect that inner certainty, and others will be drawn to the same inner turning.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes, and silently assume the state of the Lord's hand with you now; feel the certainty that belief is active and turns hearts toward the Lord. Hold the feeling for a moment, and let it radiate through your day.
